maximum articulation plz!

Post by BigRedCruiser »

Howdy i have a 70 series mwb.
Early next year im going to invest in doing alot of work to it.
I want to get maximum articulation possible.
How much would a soa lift help?
Would I want to put new springs in? Or remove a leaf or 2 from my current ones?
What type would be best & also shocks whats the best?
My mates & I do quite a bit of hunting so would like a truck than can go anywhere do anything.
Also one that can do grade 4 & 5 tracks with clubs.
Its not going to be my everyday driving vehicle.
I dont have my mindset on anything yet i want a wide range of opinions so plz help make my mind up all your wise knowledge is highly appreciated!! :idea:

No pouint in having all the bangs and whistles if you can't drive it...learn to drive it first then mod as you get better. H2olova has a well modded 70, Pm him, think he did the SOA.

the 70 middys a great platform.. soa will help a lot and with stock springs is best. makes it sit lower (centre of gravity) and flex's easier..

shocks is really up to you.. a lot of people i know have gone either rancho,efs or raws.. just depends on your budget and compression/extension requirements..

good luck and enjoy moddin :!: :D
